Scope and Content

The Utah State Bulletin is designed to keep the recipient continually informed about important administrative actions in the executive branch of State government, listing recent Governor's proclamations and executive orders, Attorney General opinions, notices of public hearings, new state publications and other information, all usually printed in full text. The bulk of the Bulletin consists of proposed administrative rules, temporary "emergency" rules, rules being reviewed, and the effective dates of rules listed as proposed in an earlier issue.

Processing Note

This series was processed by A. B. Schmuland in March 2001. Filming of the paper holdings was completed in 2006 and updated by G. Strack in March 2007. Filming also included bulletins normally only online (see Research Note), however they were requested to be microfilmed by the creating agency so copies were provided for that purpose.
